BACKGROUND

For wireless power transmission (WPT) apparatuses, in general, the transmitter transmits power to the receiver and then the receiver supplies electrical energy to the battery pack. In some application scenarios, the wireless power transmission and communication are not carried out simultaneously, resulting in discontinuous power transmission. In some other application scenarios, the wireless power transmission and communication are carried out simultaneously, that is, the electromagnetic field for the power transmission and the electromagnetic field for the wireless communication are at the same time and location, which may ensure the continuous transmission of power, but when no wireless communication is established between the wireless communication module of the transmitter and the wireless communication module of the receiver, the wireless power transmission cannot be started.

An embodiment of the present disclosure discloses a control method for a wireless charging system. As shown in FIG. 1, the above wireless charging system includes a transmitter 1 and a receiver 2. The transmitter 1 includes a power transmitting module 11, a transmitter control module 12, and a transmitter wireless communication module 13. The receiver 2 includes a power receiving module 21, a receiver control module 22, and a receiver wireless communication module 23. The transmitter control module 12 is electrically connected between the power transmitting module 11 and the transmitter wireless communication module 13. The receiver control module 22 is electrically connected between the power receiving module 21 and the receiver wireless communication module 23, and the power receiving module 21 is electrically connected a battery pack 24. The above wireless charging system may be used to provide electrical energy to the battery pack 24. In some embodiments, the battery pack 24 and the receiver 2 of the wireless charging system are disposed on a device to be charged 25. That is, the power receiving module 21, the receiver control module 22, the receiver wireless communication module 23, and the battery pack 24 may all be disposed on the device to be charged 25. The power receiving module 21 is electrically connected to the battery pack 24 on the device to be charged 25, may convert the received radio electromagnetic energy into electric energy and transmit the electric energy to the battery pack 24 for charging. At the same time, the battery pack 24 may also provide auxiliary power supply energy to the receiver 2 when the battery pack is in operation.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the control method applied to the above wireless charging system includes the following steps.

In S110, when the battery pack 24 is in an over-discharged state, the transmitter control module 12 controls the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit a first preset power to the power receiving module 21, so that the power transmitting module 11 outputs auxiliary electrical energy to the power receiving module 21.

In S120, when the power receiving module 21 receives the auxiliary electrical energy, the transmitter wireless communication module 13 is controlled to establish a wireless communication with the receiver wireless communication module 23. Optionally, a specific embodiment may be that the receiver control module 22 controls the receiver wireless communication module 23 to establish a wireless communication with the transmitter wireless communication module 13. The transmitter control module 12 controls the transmitter wireless communication module 13 to establish a wireless communication with the receiver wireless communication module 23.

In S130, after the wireless communication is established, the transmitter control module 12 controls the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit a first charge signal of a second preset power to the power receiving module 21, enabling the power receiving module 21 to charge the battery pack 24 at a first preset current.

In S140, a current working state of the battery pack 24 is obtained, and it is determined whether the battery pack 24 recovers to a normal charging state; if yes, step S150 is performed.

In S150, when determining that the battery pack 24 recovers to the normal charging state, the transmitter control module 12 controls the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit a second charge signal of a third preset power to the power receiving module 21, enabling the power receiving module 21 to charge the battery pack 24 at a second preset current.

The first preset power is lower than the second preset power. The second preset power is lower than the third preset power, and the second preset current is larger than the first preset current.

Specifically, when the battery pack 24 on the device to be charged 25 is in the over-discharged state, the transmitter control module 12 controls the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit low energy to the power receiving module 21, so that the auxiliary power supply is established to the device to be charged 25. After the auxiliary power supply for the device to be charged 25 is established, that is, when the power receiving module 21 in the receiver 2 receives the auxiliary power supply, the receiver 2 establishes wireless communication with the transmitter 1. The transmitter 1 then delivers a slightly higher power wireless energy to the receiver 2 and charges the battery pack 24 at a relatively small first preset current value, so that the battery pack 24 on the device to be charged 25 enters into a “recovery of battery with over-discharged” mode.

The current working state of the battery pack 24 is detected, and when the battery pack 24 is determined to recover to the normal charging state, the battery pack 24 is charged at the relatively large second preset current.

The present application thus achieves that when the battery pack 24 electrically connected to the wireless charging system is over-discharged, that is, when the battery pack 24 cannot establish an auxiliary power for the receiver, the above control method provided by the present application can provide and establish the auxiliary power supply for the receiver 2, so as to facilitate the establishment of the wireless communication between the receiver 2 and the transmitter 1, and enable a normal wireless power transmission between the transmitter 1 and the receiver 2, thereby realizing the wireless charging of the battery pack 24 on the device to be charged 25.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3, the above control method further includes:

    • when the battery pack 24 does not recover to the normal charging state, performing step S160: determining whether a time duration of the power receiving module 21 charging the battery pack 24 at the first preset current reaches a first preset time;
    • when the battery pack 24 does not recover to the normal charging state and the time duration of the power receiving module 21 charging the battery pack 24 at the first preset current reaches the first preset time, performing step S170: determining that the battery pack 24 is damaged, and controlling the power transmitting module 11 to stop transmitting the first charge signal by the transmitter control module 12; and
    • when the battery pack 24 does not recover to the normal charging state and the time duration of the power receiving module 21 charging the battery pack 24 at the first preset current does not reach the first preset time, repeating step S140.

In some embodiments, on the basis of the corresponding embodiments in FIGS. 1 and 2, as shown in FIG. 4, in step S110, when it is determined that the battery pack 24 is in the over-discharged state, a preset operation is performed on an external interface electrically connected to the transmitter control module 12 enabling the transmitter control module 12 to control the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit the first preset power to the power receiving module 21. That is, when the preset operation is performed on the external interface electrically connected to the transmitter control module 12, the transmitter control module 12 is triggered to perform step S110 of controlling the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit the first preset power to the power receiving module 21. That is, after the preset operation is performed on the external interface electrically connected to the transmitter control module 12, the transmitter control module 12 may know that the next task is “entering a certain working state, to recover the battery with over-discharged”, so as to start to wirelessly deliver low energy to the receiver 2 to make the receiver 2 establish an auxiliary power supply.

The above-mentioned performing the preset operation on the external interface electrically connected to the transmitter control module 12 may be implemented through the following implementation manners.

The preset operation is performed on the external interface based on a mechanical structure, where the mechanical structure is connected to the external interface (such as pressing a preset button continuously for a certain time); and/or preset information is sent to the external interface, where the external interface is a communication interface (such as Ethernet, CAN-Bus, etc.); and/or the preset operation is performed on the external interface based on a human-machine interface device, where the human-machine interface device is connected to the external interface, which are not limited by the present application.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5, the wireless charging system may further include a plurality of near field communication (NFC) modules. Specifically, the transmitter 1 may further include a first NFC module 14, and the first NFC module 14 may be electrically connected to the transmitter control module 12, for example. The receiver 2 may further include a second NFC module 26, and the second NFC module 26 may be electrically connected to the receiver control module 22, for example. In step S110, when the battery pack 24 is in the over-discharged state, the second NFC module 26 works in a card simulator mode, and the second NFC module 26 in the card simulator mode may not need a power supply and may provide its identification. On the basis of the corresponding embodiment of FIG. 2, as shown in FIG. 6, in this embodiment, when the battery pack 24 is in the over-discharged state, step S110 further includes:

    • providing identification via the second NFC module 26;
    • controlling the first NFC module 14 to be in a reader/writer mode, reading the above identification and identifying the above identification, if the identification is passed, the transmitter control module 12 controlling the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit the first preset power to the power receiving module 21, so that the power transmitting module 11 outputs auxiliary electrical energy to the power receiving module 21.

Specifically, if the identification is passed, it is determined that the receiver 2 and the transmitter 1 are matched. Only when the receiver 2 is matched to the transmitter 1, the transmitter control module 12 can control the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit the first preset power to the power receiving module 21, so that the power transmitting module 11 outputs the auxiliary electrical energy to the power receiving module 21.

In some embodiments, on the basis of the corresponding embodiment of FIG. 6, as shown in FIG. 7, step S120 may further include:

    • after the power receiving module 21 receives the auxiliary electrical energy, controlling a working mode of the first NFC module 14 to be switched to a peer-to-peer mode, and controlling a working mode of the second NFC module 26 to be switched to the peer-to-peer mode, so that the first NFC module 14 establishes the wireless communication with the second NFC module 26; after the first NFC module 14 and the above second NFC module 26 establish the wireless communication, the transmitter control module 12 controlling the power transmitting module 11 to wirelessly transmit the first charge signal of the second preset power to the power receiving module 21, to start a normal wireless power transmission between the transmitter 1 and the receiver 2.

In some embodiments, the first NFC module 14 and the transmitter wireless communication module 13 may be combined into one module; and/or, the second NFC module 26 and the receiver wireless communication module 23 may be combined into another module, which is not restricted in the present application. That is, the first NFC module 14 is used to implement the function of the transmitter wireless communication module 13, and/or the second NFC module 26 is used to implement the function of the receiver wireless communication module 23. In this case, the near field communication between the two NFC modules is used to realize the wireless communication between the transmitter and the receiver.

In some embodiments, step S140 includes: obtaining the current working state of the battery pack 24 through the receiver control module 22 and determining whether the battery pack 24 recovers to the normal charging state based on the current working state.

A specific implementation of obtaining the current working state of the battery pack 24 through the receiver control module 22 may be: the receiver control module 22 obtaining the current working state of the battery pack 24 through a battery management system of the battery pack 24. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8, a device controller 27 is further disposed on the device to be charged 25, and both the receiver control module 22 and the battery pack 24 are electrically coupled to the device controller 27. The device controller 27 detects the current working state of the battery pack 24 and provides the current working state to the receiver control module 22. The device controller 27 may be connected to the receiver control module 22 by a certain communication interface (such as CAN-Bus), or a certain digital signal General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) port. Correspondingly, the device controller 27 sends the detected current working state of the battery pack 24 to the receiver control module 22 of the receiver 2, which may be implemented by a preset message in the communication interface, or by a preset level state of the digital signal.

Optionally, the determination of whether the battery pack 24 recovers to the normal charging state may also be performed by detecting the operating voltage of the battery pack 24, and determining whether the operating voltage recovers to a preset value, by the receiver control module 22. If the operating voltage of the battery pack 24 recovers to the preset value, it is determined that the battery pack 24 recovers to a normal charging state.

The present disclosure further provides a wireless charging system configured to provide electrical energy to the battery pack 24 and may be operated using the control method in the above described embodiments. The detailed structural features and advantages of the wireless charging system may be described with reference to the above described embodiments and will not be repeated herein.

In summary, the wireless charging system and the control method thereof in the present disclosure have at least the following advantages.

The wireless charging system and the control method thereof disclosed in the present application achieve that when the battery pack electrically connected to the wireless charging system is over-discharged, that is, when the battery pack is unable to establish an auxiliary power supply for the receiver, the above control method provided in the present disclosure can establish the auxiliary power supply for the receiver, to facilitate the establishment of the wireless communication between the receiver and the transmitter, so that a normal wireless power transmission between the transmitter and the receiver is started, thereby realizing wireless charging of the battery pack on the device to be charged.
